A House for Mrs Hancock.


The Capital publishes the following,
which suggests that Republics are not very
grateful: when General w. S. Hancock
died, nearly two years ago. among the sew
eIal movements generously put on foot by
his friends and admirers for the benefit of
his most sStlmable widow, was one in
which Mr. Corcoran and other wealthy
gentlemen of this city were concerned, con-
templating the purchase Of a residence for
her at the national capital. Indeed,
Mre. Hancock was invited to come
to Washington, in order that she might
inspect and make any suggestions as to
her future house. Upon her arrival she
was driven to the brown stone row then
being constructed on r street near Twenty
second street, northwest, and was shown
the corner building, with which, OF
course, she expressed herself az highly de-
lighted. This house, 1T was understood,
tioue furniture belonging to her mother s
elegant home at Longwood, near st. Louis,
many years ago, was shipped to this city
and stored awaiting the final action OF the
donors. Since this time nothing further
has been heard of the matter. Mrs. Han
cock has, OF course, refrained with great
deIicacy from mentioning the subject,
even TO her most intimate friends, but as
the latter observe her every movement
with much interest il has been impossible
for the facts TO escape them, and in cas-

A Party of Pro.elyung Elders Forced

A Party OF PROSECUTING Elders Forced TO
Get Out of Georgi and Alabama.
CALERA, Ala, November 17.-For the
past three months party OF six Mormon
elders have been proselyting in this Sec
ton, and also at several small towns across
were made at the latter places, and the
indignation and wrath of the people could
hardly be suppressed when on last Sum
day four married women and two men left
their homes and made public their inten-
ton OF going 10 Utah. The people then
all rose up at once and gave the elders no.
tlCe TO move on instantly. They refused
at FIRST but Monday night two of them
were taken out and tarred and feathered,
aud the next night two others were chased
into the woods by hounds aud kept in the
trees all night. The elders left the next
day and the converts ars now missing,
also leaving six foYsaken homes. IL the
elders ever return there they will be shot
on sight.
The Mormons then moved into Alabama
and began their work In the lower part of
this county among the ignorant country
people. They were more successful there,
and have already baptized a dozen or
more. Tuesday, while Elders Mower and
Sea wore conducting meeting at a log
school house, fifty armed men dragged
them from the pulpit. They were carried
into the woods, the mob threatening to
hang them at every step, but on the inter-
cession of friends they were released on
their written promise TO leave the county
in twenty-four hours. Death was the al
tentative IL they returned. Both left that
night, but without their converts, escorted
portion of the war by an armed band OF
nearly one hundred.
Patrols are on guard aud publicly an
nounce their intention OF killing the frst
elder who returns there. A rumor was
current that Elder Masters was killed near
the Georgia line by blood hounds, but il
cannot be substantiated.
